Back from a Mini Vacay

The hubs and I spent a fantastic weekend at Callaway Gardens. It was kid-free & uber relaxing:o) He arranged everything, and I'll have to say, I don't think he could have done any better....it was PERFECT!

When we first arrived, I got sick...(not so perfect).

I have been on antibiotics for an upper respiratory infection, and it's been making me icky at times.

We were supposed to start the trip off with a 2 hour bike ride, but I wasn't feelin' it, so we toured the gardens by foot & car.

Inside of the butterfly house:

The Chapel:

Entrance to chapel

Stained Glass Window in chapel

View of Lake from chapel

Lots of pictures of the chapel, eh?

Me taking a break to keep everything down....was that T.M.I.?:o)

This bunny was so cute:o)

This little guy was cute until he started blowing his chin out at me to back off....not cool!

The hubs and me:o)

It's hard to see from this pic, but there were around 30 turtles coming towards me(that little red dot at the end is me). They thought I came baring gifts. See that dispenser to the right? It's full of turtle food, and you could buy some for a quarter. I felt so bad b/c we didn't have any money on us...poor turtles!

This is one of the restaurants that we ate at.

We sat at the far right corner. They had an amazing Sunday brunch...I had a Vegan meal. It was FATABULOUS.!

This my friends is the post office in one of the neighborhoods of Callaway Gardens....isn't the cutest thing?!

We eventually got around to the bike rides, and it was so much fun!

My favorite flower!

Cute little nook.

Us after surviving the bike trails....we were still smiling:o)

I almost forgot to mention the 4 hours I spent at the SPA while hubs was playing golf....It was heavenly. Massage, pedicure, steam room, relaxation room, & haircut. A girl could get use to this:o)

I am so thankful that we were able to take a weekend for ourselves. We definitely came back relaxed and ready to take on the world:o)
